I am a nurturing caregiver with over 2 years of childcare experience, a background in Early Child Development, and a degree in psychology. I currently work at a daycare and am CPR/First Aid certified. I am comfortable caring for multiple children and providing a safe, engaging environment with play-based and educational activities. I’m happy to help with cooking, carpooling, light housekeeping, and comfortable with animals! I’m expecting a baby in February and seeking a position that allows me to bring my infant along. I wouldn't be able to start until May due to recovery from my own delivery, but if you're at all flexible with the starting date, I would love the opportunity! Our kiddos could socialize and learn together too if that's something you'd like!

In 2005 I went to work for a geriatric psychiatrist whom I was with for 12 years. I’ve been a full time nanny since 2018 and currently full time with a Kalamazoo family.

I'm Josephine, but most people/kids call me Josie. I'm 18. I've been babysitting kids for 4 years, from newborns all the way up to 10 years old. I can cook, clean, drive, and I also do overnights if needed. I love babysitting because I've basically done it my whole life with my friends' siblings, and children also bring out the best in you. I also love helping people and watching as children grow and develop new skills.

Hi! I’m Alexis, and caring for children is something I genuinely love. I have two years of experience working with children, including a year as a lead infant teacher in a daycare, where I was responsible for daily routines, developmental activities, and creating a safe, nurturing environment. I also have experience supporting children on the autism spectrum, focusing on skill development, behavior support, and individualized care. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I always strive to create a calm, positive space where children feel secure and cared for. Families can trust that I treat every child with kindness, respect, and genuine care.

I absolutely adore children and have always wanted to care for children. I’m a nursing student, so when I graduate, I’d love to work in pediatrics. I’m very outgoing, and have a positive attitude towards just about everything. I also have a lot of experience with children as I interned at a daycare for a couple years, which is mostly where I discovered what type of field in nursing i would like to pursue, and I have a baby sister at home who I absolutely adore. I also have 2 nephews and a niece who I get the opportunity to babysit more often than not, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I am CPR certified as well.

Hi my name is Morgan and I’m currently living in Niles Michigan with my roommate. I work part time at Prime Table Restaurant as a host/server. I’m the eldest sibling of 7, so I’ve basically been babysitting since my first sibling was born, just helping with whatever I could at the time. When I turned 14 my family’s friends and our church community would reach out whenever they needed a sitter for the night so I would say that’s when I started taking it a lot more serious. After Covid I took a break from babysitting to focus on getting a car and a place of my own but I would love to start back up. I’m not trained in much but I do know cpr and first aid training and I would be willing to train for other certifications for a full/part time position!
